the candidate that we support we america we the door and trumps administration and here we come to the golan i think that the israeli voters are by far more intelligent than this and let's leave the elections one side or so the theory in terms of practical implications on the grain this intervention from donald trump is this going to have any real term effects on the situation in the golan heights and within israel itself. i think that. very small effect it depends obviously how will the international community react because by the end of the day let's not forget america is not the world and the world is not only america things go if i may say but in any case. when it comes to negotiate the future of the golan heights
7:01 pm
i think all the hoes holo decorations will be forgotten the golan is syria and was ok applied by israel until now except of the united states no other country in the world recognizes their occupation of the golan like no other country are comprised of the west bank and it's time to see if the world will join the united states this is one scenario which i doubt very much obviously and if not you know when it will be relevant again when there will be a syrian power then an israeli part they might negotiate peace and no peace with syria will not include returning the golan heights because the golan heights is syria i get in levy we will have to leave it there but thank you very much for joining us live from tel aviv. bunch of our heads on the news ira including sitting on comfortably you ladies agree to rx it until a pants it comes with conditions. a number of days rises from china's worst

others we call our appalling governments around the wards including new zealand and the neighboring countries to bring an end to hate speech and the politics of fear will his sane came from australia for the event last friday two of his relatives were killed for it touched by what the what the man was saying and i think he was saying the right words and that's why beautiful clothes but not everyone in the park had a personal connection to a victim or even share their faith for many hearts most of those who came here these will have been the first friday prayers they've ever attended they came not because they're muslim but to show solidarity with the victims of last friday's attacks and islamic community of new zealand more generally many not muslim women
7:05 pm
wore a headscarf as an added mark of respect i just want to express myself or terribly at this terrible time just how terrible made clear by the mass burial held on friday funerals for twenty six people in a single afternoon after thomas al-jazeera christchurch. turkey is hosting an emergency meeting or the organization of islamic cooperation in istanbul following the new zealand mosque attacks and circus governments cold meeting to address rising violence motivated by islamophobia as president says turkey will make the suspected mosque attack or pay if new zealand doesn't whenever and wherever a terrorist strikes we know and you know the aim is to provoke fear and panic well in new zealand it has failed. failed because our thoughts are not the terrorists thoughts and his extremist ways are not our ways and to be
7:06 pm
clear in new zealand hate speech is not tolerated well everything else may have changed in our country on the fifteenth of march few days ago. new zealand's essential character has not and will not do reverse what happened in new zealand he new said tag that killed fifty of our brothers can never be regarded as an ordinary event it is caused by the deeply rooted hatred obsession and grudge. well a school large measure soon and close your stomach by for us in istanbul. the turkish president has praised just in the origin which is something of a change of direction given or to one's initial reaction for the tax which sparked some controversy. while the. reaction about this that the attack in new zealand was stable in one way but
7:07 pm
changeable in another way since the beginning of this sad incident prisons are gone and all other turkish officials have appreciated new zealand's firm stance than the solidarity that they sought to muslim community in their home and have rowed but only other henry how witness present are done speaking different the at a commemoration on march eighteenth in gallipoli in western turkey when he was talking about the world war which is almost a hundred years back he meant he was talking about the un's out sue came to fight on the side of british on the ultimate soil at that time and he said they came here because we were muslims the turks were muslims and some of the went back their home and some of them returned their home and their coffins so this was perceived as
7:08 pm
very offensive by i was frail and new zealand and actually i was thrilled enough whistles have said that they expect an apology from president are done and then. a day or two days after this. this speech by president are done is communication team released a statement saying that his words which were taken out of context but in turkey and outside turkey people know that there's an election coming up a local election that the ruling party which is governed by the president. that is seen as a determination of the ruling party's future and at present our don is campaigning himself in all cities of turkey and this was perceived that he was trying to shop for the national the small it is interesting but it is this page of president add on also received reaction from the main opposition and some other people even
7:09 pm
around even in the circles of the ruling party but today we have witnessed that he continued his firm stance for appreciating zealand's solidarity and positive approach. about manity but he didn't repeat the same rhetorical that he seems to have spend those words for the election campaign that is coming up on march thirty first. thank you so much for bridges that are say it's from istanbul. well you leaders have given the u.k. more time to decide on the future of brics it softer perspire warning the deadline past may the march the twenty ninth rather british politicians can stand the departure to may the twenty second but only if they approve prime minister to resign may's deal if they don't they'll have a shorter time and so it will twelve to get the deal through or quote indicate
7:10 pm
a way forward or the bottlenose shifts back to britain's parliaments which is split down the middle between supporters and opponents of bracks it's to reason he says m.p.'s no have a clear choice. well you leaders are holding a second day of talks in brussels we have to correspondents on this story will go to hold a doctor read in brussels in just a moment but first let's head to bob barr who is in london for us the cliff edge dates has been pushed back three weeks there's a real feeling we're entering the end game what happens next. well hala i don't think anyone would confidently say that they know what happens next they know that series i'm a stubborn as she is a straying to support right now having arrived but from brussels for her with jewel agreements an agreement which brussels has made clear will not be tampered with any
7:11 pm
more the negotiations have finished now we're hearing that performance was so disappointing to her fellow e.u. leaders on thursday there in brussels some people calling it ninety minutes of nothing the fabian fight then sent her out to debate what to do because she didn't seem to have a plan if her deal was not passed through parliament in the coming days and president of france for example. would his estimation of the chances of it getting through to five percent i mean that might be harsh some people think here that's realistic so there are a number of m.p.'s in different polities here now who say they're highly confident that they will be able next week to seize control of the agenda in parliament to then dictate what's get what gets voted on and in the british press there are reports that several cabinet ministers will resign if they don't get the right to
7:12 pm
do so they're so fed up in the prime minister what could happen then if they do take control through a vote early next week is that fade him on parliament votes on a series of a series of options do we want to entertain the idea of the leader of the opposition jeremy colvin of britain. leaving the e.u. but staying in a customs union and perhaps some version of the single market do we want to. go for a longer extension something which would mean holding those european parliament elections something to resume a doesn't want to do do we in fact go for another referendum admitting that we can't go anywhere putting it back to the people or do even want to revoke article fifty and say it hasn't worked out we simply can't deliver bricks it this is our plan b. now it's not clear what commands a majority in parliament apart from we know that they did vote to rule out a no deal but they have to take steps to make that happen there's
7:13 pm
a new deadline as you were just saying of april the twelfth so there is still pressure on m.p.'s to come up with a solution they've got breathing space they've also got the momentum now to try to sideline series in may and say it really is up to us it's our national to deliver some kind of results at the same time there are calls from some people in the conservative party for a government of national unity labor say they are pushing forward one which is actually going somewhere is cross party talks on that idea of a softer brick sit with the customs union so it looks of possibilities which could become clearer in the week ahead or perhaps it's still not impossible that that will get pushed onto another week and europe is still saying that on april the twelfth that would just be your deadline to tell us what you want to do we could actually give you a later leaving date so many many variables many variables indeed thank you so much
7:14 pm
not even baba joining us from westminster let's cross ny to brussels and join our correspondent on the hamid. events appeared to suggest that it's the e.u. that's taken back control of brics to coin a phrase i am what happens next and on the brussels side of the. well i think that the e.u. is now going to wait and see what terrorism may and next step. this will be she is not here today she was supposed to be here for the second day of the e.u. summit but actually she sent text messages this morning to several of her european counterparts saying that she was heading straight back to london to deal with all she has to deal with now it's clear from the events that unfolded here yesterday that there were very harsh conversation the e.u. leaders have put to resume under sport and they were not happy with the kind of says she gave them we heard that from several of the e.u.
7:15 pm
leaders as said earlier especially the president french president emmanuelle macor as you said they have taken control of the schedule if you remember she she was coming here yesterday quite confident or probably hoping that they would accept an extension to article fifty until june thirtieth that did not happen and they gave two options of eda may twenty second or in case she gets a yes vote in the house of parliament or april twelfth if she gets a no vote that would give also a bit of time for the house of commons to decide what they want to do next and what kind of options they can come up with and come back to the e.u. now why april twelfth simply because april twelfth is the deadline by which the u.k. should start fielding can do this for the upcoming european elections which are set for may twenty third so it's a lot of variables up in the air and even though donald tusk came out yesterday
7:16 pm
quite late around midnight that press that press. conference was actually scheduled for about six or seven in the evening so a long delay they came out they put they said that they had reached a. conclusion this new way ahead but within the e.u. they are a lot of divisions there are people who are leaders who are losing. there patients there are leaders who say well we now might have no other option than a hard break said let's be ready for that because this has gone too far we spent two and a half years dealing with negotiating this withdrawal agreement we don't want to start all over again and it seems that the reason it is not able to deliver the goods. thanks very much for bringing us that are saints live from brussels north korea has withdrawn its staff from the enter korean liaison office in the latest setback for diplomatic relations as
7:17 pm
a result south korea's convenes an american see me saying calling the decision regrettable it comes a week after the north threatens a poor new clear talks with the u.s. and it follows the collapse of last month's summit space we don't want trump and kim jong un over to speak about sanctions so. the government finds the north's to solution regrettable and it's hoped that the north returns of staff to the liaison office for normal operation as it was agreed between the two countries . when a few moments we'll have the weather with everson but still ahead on al-jazeera we'll bring you the latest from iraq on a ferry that capsized near the northern city of mosul. the human cost of war we follow one get many families points. and walking out so on braces a footballer in bolivia takes a stand that's coming up in sports with joe. hello

7:22 pm
now the un has described the flooding disaster in southern africa as huge the complex and it says it will require an even more complex response fifteen thousand people many of them are still stranded more than a week after a cycle struck the emergency teams in mozambique have increased efforts to rescue trapped people in areas worst affected by those floods more survivors who thing stranded on rooftops and in trees have been rescued aid agencies have also started to airlift food to flood victims many people had gone for several days without clean water or anything to eat the world food program says more than one point five million people will need aid over the next three months in neighboring zimbabwe the situation is dire many people are still missing and damaged roads and bridges has
7:23 pm
cut off some communities officials have to clear it's two days of national mourning well let's get an update on the situation malcolm webb joins me now live from don't be in mozambique just give us a sense of the situation where you are. well half an hour's walk from here down there is the river and the ground between there and here is completely flat as it is far beyond in the other direction shortly after the cyclon reached mozambique and this area was suffered little flash flooding people here say water came up from the river very fast and there's nowhere to run because it's such a long distance you would be washed away before before you could reach high ground if you tried to run away so all the people that you can see behind you now spent three or four days at best you can water others who climbed trees or where the water was above head height and these are the lucky survivors of of what happened
7:24 pm
then that in this village ten people died in the next village just down the road that we passed through a short while ago about twenty people died and now that the water levels gone down people are finding the bodies of their loved ones some of them trapped in trees others trapped in their brief from the storm many of those that died a small children who weren't strong enough to prevent themselves being washed away by the very strong current when that water came in the thing that's leading people to the bodies of their loved ones by now it is the smell of bodies and also the livestock and cows that were killed by that surge of water now starting to smell very bad indeed the situation for the people here is pretty desperate most of their homes were destroyed and they're waiting here for some food to be delivered most of them haven't eaten anything since that flash flood swept through the area. and as you say it has been just over a week since the flash flood saying obviously the damage which has been caused to
7:25 pm
infrastructure has been teasing aid agencies is there now some aid getting through to people. here there is this is one of the lucky communities it's a far as mine now it's reachable by road from a town there's no broken bridge between here and the nearest town although on the roads we pass this is about half of the been in very slippery mud some food has arrived there was a small pile of bags of rice here that's what people desperately need and it's mozambique national institute for disasters that brought it into she says it doesn't have nearly enough resources and nearly enough. all of the people who are in this situation all over central mozambique and certainly that pile of food there is not going to go far among the two hundred or three hundred people that are waiting here for it just down the road there's also a small camp that was set up by the same institute with the help of some foreign
7:26 pm
charities people whose homes have washed away some of them are staying in pencil there who are a lot of the people here and they've now got absolutely nothing their possessions washed away homes destroyed and just waiting for someone to bring systems like these grains of rice these bags of rice which is what they'll be depending on for months ahead because of course crops and farms have been destroyed as well mark and this is likely to be a long process will continue to check in with you and i thank you very much mark and webb joining us from don't bathe in mozambique well stay in mozambique for me the miller is in the city over a beer there are still so many people stranded however the search and rescue operations are continuing this morning what at this point are those operations are ongoing but perhaps not at the pace that people would like we were out on a boat. well
7:27 pm
unfortunately since you have lost for me to miller there we'll try and come back soon as we resolve those technical issues understandably given the situation in mozambique let's switch to zimbabwe now staying with the floods that cut off communities make an extremely hard for help to reach them. reports are from co-publisher many people are still looking for their missing relatives. they say they can't wait any longer for authorities to help them find their relatives so they are digging themselves up a village in eastern zimbabwe has completely changed. these boulders never used to be here the shops schools and government offices are gone. after cycling through the community it's now an eerie gravesite my nephew. who was working at the
7:28 pm
clinic was now living. you see the stones. under structures this is my domain area and. you can see him. is wife in which four children. among the four children the twins. all took an hour but people are saying under the stones this is where the people are. community leaders say people climb trees in a desperate attempt to stay alive but a huge rolling boulders crashed into them throwing them down into the fast moving water below as a doctor and it's frustrating a lot of people are missing they could be under the stones yesterday a child's body was found in the mud there are people buried here cyclonic die is a worst storm to hit zimbabwe since like ilene nearly twenty years ago the impact
7:29 pm
was devastating it slipped away an entire community some people were sleeping at the. time survivors say it happened just after nine pm on friday the water came from that direction and it kept rising and rising very quickly some people ran to a police camp which was near this area for safety but the water was too powerful and swept many of them away the floods ravaged several parts of eastern zimbabwe completely transforming parts of minicon and province it really has changed the landscape of this reform. as it is you know most of the bridges have been washed away. or certainly the entrances approaches to the bridges have been washed away this makes bringing in the man a tearin aid more challenging in copper this is how people now get across to what used to be a business center the precarious makeshift bridge is meant to be temporary until a more permanent structure is built as long as this place is difficult to reach by
7:30 pm
road people here say they have to improvise there is an official death toll for the province but community leaders fear once the missing are accounted for that number could be much higher those who haven't found their relatives say they won't stop looking for them survivors believe those who weren't slipped away joining the floods are buried somewhere under these boulders and mud. al-jazeera zimbabwe at least seventy people have reportedly died after two buses collided in southern ghana the accident happens in the town of. local media say one of the buses caught fire after the collision we'll bring you more on the story as soon as we get it. the vigils have been held for at least one hundred people who dies in iraq after the ferry they were traveling in capsize in the northern city of mosul it was carrying family celebrating the ruse the persian new year most of those who dies were women and children al-jazeera is
7:31 pm
a mere fendi has the latest from assume. this is where the ferry sank the one behind me is identical to the one that went down in this resolve the two ferries used to carry visitors to the result island across this review tori of the two koreas as you can see the water current is very strong and official source from the water authority in one hour told us they had informed operators of the most to shut more gates to bring the water level down and this would help recover the dead bodies sixty persons were rescued alive yesterday when the ferry capsized the government has deployed all the resources at hand we should note that the first capacity is not more than fifty personnel and the one that went down had more than two hundred persons on ball the ferry also lacks safety equipment as you see search operations are still underway the city is in total shock and the government has
7:32 pm
declared a mourning period. where we've managed to reestablish constant for me to miller in flood ravaged mozambique for me to you were talking to us about the search and rescue operations give us a sense of how those are are continuing this hour. well those are rescue operations are now into the eighth day and they are ongoing but perhaps not at a pace at which many people would like we were out on a boat last night on the boozy river leading into boozy which is one of the most hard hit areas and we came across at least two hundred people at one point who had been waiting there for days they hadn't eaten slept or had any water to drink and the boat we were on was with a fisherman who was using his resources to help aid agencies are doing whatever they can but the there are a number of challenges reaching some of these areas is very difficult because the air is just so fast it reaches at least one hundred and twenty five kilometers now
7:33 pm
we're at the port in barrow where a lot of people who are risk you'd out brought this is one of their first stops the indian navy in fact has set up a medical center where they can attend to those who need help as soon as possible but to give us a better idea of what they're doing we're speaking to commander. in chief who who has been you know for a couple of days you've seen about five hundred people so far do you expect that number to grow and what are you seeing possible are going to get up to you and very good up to the people of missouri and rick of you have landed here on the eighteenth of this month and of you've been undertaking operations since the eighteen so far we've rescued through two thousand people and you've provided medical aid to those who returned it personally we have seen a lot of things with snakebites with handicapped people in malnutrition and you have been doing our best to aid the nation with i also thank the republic of mozambique for.
